Flotsam and Jetsam (Part One)

The first chapter (after the prologue) of “Flotsam and Jetsam” is up over on ao3! I will be posting a chapter every Monday! The entire thing is completed and I am working on the follow-up. (A sequel, from me? I know!)

Anyway, this is the mer!Cody and living by the sea!Obi-Wan au. Set in the 1940s. Warnings for PTSD, suicidal ideation, talk of major injuries, past major character death (none in the fic), commentary on mental health care in the past. 

“Flotsam and Jetsam” is Codywan, explicit (eventually), and big on both physical and emotional hurt/comfort. Six total chapters (two of which are already up). You may recognize the prologue as an entry from whumptober, which spawned this entire AU. Hope you enjoy! 

I'm actually thinking of making my own Clone OC. Any tips?

Sure, I can offer what I’ve got! I’m gonna try and separate this answer into a few sections, but here’s the image folder I have for all of my clone refs to start with-

I update this every now and then when needed, and I’ll be using images from there for this answer! There are many more named clones and image refs out there on the internet, don’t be afraid to google something if you need help!

Faces:

Clone’s (obviously) all have the same basic face shape (save for the Bad Batch, but I’m not gonna get into them for this). 

They all have warm brown skin and wide/prominent noses. You can look up the live action actor for Jango (Temuera Morrison) for more IRL face references too if you need to. Hair customization, tattoos, facial hair and scarring can do A LOT to distinguish clones from each other. Hair can be dyed and cut however, so long as it fits in a helmet (like with Tup, he has long hair tied up into a tight bun.) Eyebrows are also customizable. Pluck them into a different shape, shave them off, dye them, have fun with it!

Armor:

Clone armor has a lot of room for customization as well. Clones can paint whatever they’d like on them, but if their squad/battalion or whatever has a specific color scheme then they’ll mostly stick with those colors

Looking up different kinds of clone armor for different situations/ranks is helpful too! This video does a breakdown of every type of clone trooper rank/type:

Names:

Clones are all given numbers at birth. To distinguish each other, they all give each other more unique names as they grow up. They can be named for a personality habit, a distinct moment from their training / any point in their life, or they can have normal sounding names like Gregor. It’s all preference, but some clones are stuck with a name that came from a reputation regardless of if they like it or not. 

Here’s image compilations of some Clone Commanders/Captains/ARC troopers and more for examples:

Personality:

Clones are all unique individuals. They have varying personalities, likes/dislikes, habits, etc. Consider their backstory and experiences in training/on the field to help shape them, be sure to do your best to give your clones aspects of their personalities that make them feel like real and believable people!

There’s plenty more you can do for making your clones, but this post is just a rundown of the basics. I hope any of what I said here was helpful to you, and have fun making your clones!

The Helmet

The modern Mandalorian helmet is a technological marvel, one that allows a well-trained Watcher to see in all directions, communicate easily, and fight more effectively than a dozen common soldiers.

The helmet’s viewplate automatically augments vision in low-light conditions and protects it from peaks in intensity, preventing a Watcher from being blinded by explosions or luma-weaponns. The viewplate’s macrobinocular lenses interface with the rangefinger, selecting as many as 10 targets for tracking via the heads-up display, controlled either by voice command or eye movement and blinking. A pineal sensor and microcameras let the wearer see behind him. An encrypted internal comlink allows communications with other Watchers, while a broadband antenna is included for longer-range transmissions. The helmet has a two-hour reserve air tank and an environmental filter to eliminate contaminants.

Summary: Sometimes his soulmark had been the only thing that had kept Jango going–knowing that somewhere out there was his match: someone meant for him, someone who wouldn’t find him too broken or useless.
